Lions being deep at d-line could ship Corey Williams to Philly for Asante Samuel, Detroit can always use secondary help, and Philly is very week at d-line! Williams has another 2 years under contract for about 5-6 mill, and we have a few young up and coming d-lineman in Fairley and Sammie Hill. Would make great sense!!

Whomever trades for Samuel needs to make him a free safety. I never understood why team s keep him at corner when his skill sets (Ants, plus no tackling and the ability to give up big plays if he does not get the pick) is more suited for the centerfield role.

Speaking on behalf of the Jaguars, we will give you Rashean Matthis on an even trade for Samuels.
We are tired of all the broadcasters not being able to pronounce his name. It isn’t Raesheen you dopes. He’s been in the league like seven years!

If i had a nickel for everytime someone this board has said someone ” sucks” who doesn’t i’d be rich.

Samuel is by the numbers the best corner in the NFL this season. Sure he is not the greatest tackler, but he is a corner. I think there is 2 corners total in the NFL who tackle well. Instead of just speaking out your butts try doing some research. Try watching a game.

Also the Eagles don’t need a DT or anyone on the line. They have as much talent as anyone at the DL position and now that Juan figured out you can’t run the wide 9 on running downs when you have little line backers they will be fine. What they do need is a safety and more importantly a middle backer. But its going to have to be a really good middle backer to get 22. my guess is he stays and gets traded in the offseason and the eagles sling a 3rd for an vet middle backer.

as a patriots fan i can safely say samuel will probably wind up stuck in philly till his awful contract is up…this guy just plays for interceptions he can’t tackle at all and usually he’s out of position and getting beat because he’s always ball-hawking…for the money he’s getting paid i feel sorry for whoever would trade for him

Nobody is going to trade a starter on defense for Samuel in the middle of the season. Unless Samuel understands a team’s system, too much of a learning curve to establish value. Then again, that didn’t stop Oakland from one hell of a stupid deal. Maybe Philly will find their “Oakland” and someone will overpay for Asante.

Buffalo could really use Asante, move Florence to cover the slot and Have McGee stay on is left side. Use McKelvin in slim dime sets and when injury presents itself. Without a pass rush, we need all the coverage we can get!

@staff2cj4td: Philly has a very good d-line (Cole,Babin,Jenkins,tapp,landri etc.) , we’re 2nd in the league in sacks and are always pressuring the QB. The Eagles need lb’s though in the worst of ways. If Detroit (or any team) has any good LB’s please pick up the phone .

We should put Samuel, Steve Smith , Parker up on the trading block , hell package them all and throw in that extra second rounder, just bring in a playmaker @ LB Philly! “!

As a Browns fan, I know that the dumber it sounds, the more likely it is that the Browns will do it.

Holmgren is looking worse and worse each passing week. So of his and Heckert’s draft choices are looking incredibly idiotic too: Marecic over Vickers? Cameron Jordan when you have three TEs that can start already on the roster? And now Hardesty over Hillis??

Then there is the matter of Holmgren’s “handpicked” franchise QB Colt McCoy.

And don’t get me started about Pat Murmur. His team is so much worse than Mangini’s Browns were. He ran Rob Ryan out of town and then Jauron’s defense got caught napping against the Bengals opening day. He ran Brad Seeley out of town and the Browns new man at punter went out and had a nervous breakdown on opening day. Then the Browns gave up not one but 2 special teams TDs to the Raiders after having a bye week to prepare for Oakland.

Fire all of them before they make the Browns so unlikeable that fans actually want the team to move again.

Dallas won’t be in play for Asante, that’s for certain. The only trade options are LBs, DEs and DTs according to the iggles and there is NO WAY Dallas is trading any veterans (except maybe Brooking) at those positions right now. I could see JJ going for it with draft picks, but since that’s off the table so are the pokes.

Hillis, on the other hand, might be in play. JJ is a known lover of all things arkansas and that’s where Hillis hails from, plus the injury to the other razorback (Felix) opens a need.

I for one think neither are needed. What IS needed is for the pokes to put a gag on JJ at the end of games and to start giving Tanner some carries. He’ll provide more of a powerful between-the-tackles attitude the cows need right now.

According to ESPN Insider, Peyton Hillis and conditional picks are being traded for Asante Samuel. Peyton Hillis will play linebacker on the Eagles and will “start after the bye week, assuming he his healthy enough to play. We are excited about this opportunity and feel it will solidify our linebacker corps.”

Hillis has more value to the Browns than he would with anyone else. If they traded him, he’d immediately be moved to fullback. I could see a Dallas connection (with Jerruh and Hillis both being connected to Arkansas) and Dallas’ inconsistencies at the HB position this year.

For everyone that downed me on my previous post where I said the Lion’s don’t need to add to their secondary. Look at the stats, they’re 6th overall in passing yards allowed/game. That means they’re better than 26 other teams in passing defense.

Lions don’t need another running back. They will wait until LeShoure returns next year. If anything they need a good blocking fullback to help spring Best into the second level. Hillis won’t want to go back to a role like that after tasting life as the main man.
